conflict

you speak to me in lazy meadows
where mild sunlight soothes daisies and pansies
and butterflies flit throught the air

verbal floral art

and tell me constantly...how you feel

when harsh sounds from stark and dry deserts move across your landscape
forming shadows in your mind
(loud colours and hot people)

you cower in your room

scared, defenceless, eclipsed

and then slide out sideways and shoot them down in righteousness(one hand on the bible and the other on the gun)and moral judgements
in the name of freedom wrapped in the colour of a bleeding heart and coated in the reflective paint of your dark, sticky fear and your armoured mirror of denial

nature IS a cruel and indiscriminate force

i move in primary colours, cover myself in black and bitter thorns
and swamp you in the darkness of my chosen silence

well last saturday after meeting with al at modaks i discovered that others have similar theories as mine!though theirs is a far more complicated way of working it out hahaha anyway the name of these theories is in fact the chaos theory...(this is self dirivitive by the way) i really was impressed with myself for a bit there, nothing like the sound of a balloon popping ...anyway i do find it all amusing... tho my perspective is far more socially inclined, and i guess the truth the people that have inspired me etc have been all meditationally and scientifically inclined....ray tomes, who i did in fact meet at vipassana meditation retreat in 1999/2000 we talked about the effect of sound on matter and he introduced me to cymatics, and klaus who does a lot of work for the steiner school up north....both of them have incredible minds i think....oh yeah and stephan jones (severed heads) was influential though i only saw him speak...very inspiring...cybernetics and such it made so much sense when he said it...sounded easy...stephan jones has been working with conputors since the beginning of computor time...and video very interesting indeed...will read the book chaos that young al encouraged me to read..by james gleick and think about fractels for abit...i so agree that it is all patterns patterns patterns....and i just have to say ooooo its 31 degrees outside yukyukyuk give me the snow anyday LOL...well at least water.....
meditation to me is a tool to clear the head so reality can come in :) nothing more and nothing less ....

patterns patterns patterns

hi it was suggested to me the other month that my artwork was intuitive....this really did get me thinking...hmmm what is intuition?
so my new theory is that intuition is merely the ability to read patterns...as is computor programming, music, mathematics, nature, shamanism (for want of a better word) etc anyway t was kindof an epiphany that left me with the feeling i`d just found god for y`know a couple of weeks...started to come down now :)...the most exciting part of it was a computor geek friend of mine had had a very similar conclusion...dont you love that.....walking in to or breathing in that same idea
anyway thats my moment ...it has actually all broadened and expanded and suspect that autistic people are possibly extremely good pattern readers, and there is a wee bit of stuff behind that but i wont go into at this point... not enough research etc....
the real trick i think to pattern reading...or a sign of an advanced pattern reader is the ability to preconcieve the random event or supposedly random event...anyway anyway am getting titles `where the hammerheads feed' ` a new wave of colonials (with a kernal of truth) and kernals, colonels, and colonials (and the truth inbetween)

and one last question... and in fact he most poignant of questions; in regards to the patnt and copyright issues around dna and genes.. will vampyres be taxed for sucking blood?, will they tax us for sucking our blood or are they just plain taxing :) byeee

am meeting elliot tomorrow yay and am going to be offline for while :( because i am going home and alas alack i`m not online there anyway have more research on dna am not sure what i will upload onto here because i need to read it more thoroughly for relevance ... see you soon blogger

am planning a new event one that i thought about for years...will be good fun constructing it am aiming for march and it will be incorporated into my work on many levels...glad its raining outside it is such a relief...and found the gun club on youtube yay...will have to come up with some music for the whole thing so...maybe sylvie would be good for that mmmm

i went to meet elliot today to discuss intellectual property and the laws around it... he has finished his law degree and has interesting perspectives...alas he couldnt speak today, but hopefully it will happen soon

1st january 09

well well its such an interesting debate ...intellectual property rights, and what can and cant be patented..interesting that genetic maps come under intellectual property as well.. it infers that all this is merely speculation...

and then there is always jung and the mass consiousness and all that..... which from my experience is defintely true...... do we find ideas or do they find us?

i`m really glad i am doing this, people tend toward black and white on these extremely complex issues, i know how i stand and nobody should be able to buy my dna or yours... or the dna of a tomato or a pumpkin etc but i would like to be more articulate.. and i do think there is debate for protection or `ownership of' intellectual property as well....it is complicated

the molecular structure of the earth and everything that lives on it, to me, should not be able to be patented, i think its a crime.... a legal crime....and i think its unfortunate that all of this has come about... i guess if these things were purchasable for specific reasons, and had some kind of laws around them to protect the patent purchase from profit making the circling hungry sharks that swim about would not be so keen on the food

some of the things i have read in regards to all this have made me feel very sad for the state of the nation, and the state of us especially, i would say in the west but i think its arrogant and ignorant to assume some kind of monopoly on a generic emotion such as greed.... that empty void that needs to be constantly filled

through my research i have also found it is now impossible for any of us to own all of our dna, as some of the patents for specific dna have already been bought by various companies (who i will list later)

it is also sad that people have used this as a means of exploiting other peoples work as in the case of monsanto`s...christ how does anyone get away with that shit? its outrageous... perhaps we are just spoilt with concept of rights...dumbed and dulled...its an odd thing if we just didnt buy into it would it go away? because resistance does tend to breed resistance....

and i guess in some ways this does tie into the whole ethics thing of which comes first, principles or people?
personally i would like to say people people people... but that is a hard road isnt it!? its as hard a road and part of the road of non-resistence, or should i say passive resistance...which is a very hard road....

i will also incorporate into this work passive and aggressive resistance...as did with all my work for the last couple of years, the rise of science and consumerism, world war 2, nazi germany and of course ghandi... nationalism and all that.... the desire for perfection etc etc, all of these things seem to on some level meet,.... anyway sebastion and orlando would like to walk now so be off for a mo or a tick or whatever
